Chapter 998 Stealing Her Resources
But this time, the incident was caused by her. If Ruben really had to pay compensation, Christina would feel guilty to death.
After hesitating for a long time, Christina couldn't resist her guilt and decided to agree to Ruben. "Alright, but Ruben, I'm not sure if I can satisfy your partners."
"Don't worry, you're so beautiful, they will definitely be satisfied." Hearing Christina agree to his request, Ruben quickly finalized the time for her to come to the company for the shoot.
After hanging up the phone, Christina still felt uneasy. Could she really handle shooting an advertisement?
Also, Bernard must not find out about this. If he did, he would definitely be unhappy. She would quickly finish the shoot, solve this problem, and then never interact with Ruben again!
Ruben quickly sent the advertisement script to Christina.
To ensure the shoot went smoothly and didn't delay Ruben's company's work, Christina studied and learned it herself first.
Fortunately, Bernard still hadn't come home these past few days, which made Christina feel at ease and allowed her to focus on her own matters, making things much more convenient.
Otherwise, she would have to sneak around to avoid him.
On the day of the shoot, Christina got up early and dressed up before heading out.
"Christina, you're up so early today. Where are you headed?" Just as she was about to leave, Hellen suddenly called out to her.
Christina turned her head and gave an awkward smile. "Mrs. Mitchell, I have something to take care of. I might not be back for dinner tonight."
Hellen didn't press for details and just reminded her to be careful and to contact Billy if she needed anything.
"Okay, Mrs. Mitchell, I will!"
After responding to Hellen, Christina quickly left.
When she arrived at the Rojas Group, it was almost the agreed time, and Ruben had already arranged for staff to wait in the lobby.
The Rojas Group staff quickly greeted Christina when they saw her.
During the last interview, she had noticed that Christina held a special significance for Ruben, so she didn't dare to neglect her.
Such an important person, she had to take good care of Christina. "Ms. Russell, Mr. Rojas is already waiting for you upstairs. Please follow me this way."
Christina followed the staff into the elevator and went up to the fifth floor.
"The shooting location is on the fifth floor. Everyone is ready. Let's go change clothes and do your makeup first." The person Ruben sent to receive her introduced things to Christina as they walked.
Christina followed the staff into a room where stylists and makeup artists were already waiting. There were many cosmetics on the makeup table, and one side of the room was filled with beautiful clothes.
"This is Mr. Rojas's friend, Ms. Russell. I'll leave her to you now."
After handing Christina over to the makeup artists and stylists, the staff member left.
Just as Christina finished changing clothes, Ruben walked in, looked her up and down, and smiled. "This outfit suits you well."
"Ruben, can I really do this?" Christina felt a bit embarrassed sitting in front of the makeup table. She rarely dressed up like this and felt a bit uneasy.
Ruben stood behind Christina, looking at her in the mirror. "Of course you can. You're so beautiful. Believe in yourself."
This was already the umpteenth time Ruben had complimented her beauty.
The makeup artists and stylists worked very quickly, and after more than half an hour, they finished her makeup and styling.
Christina, who had been carefully dressed up, looked completely different from when she first arrived.
Today's shoot was arranged to be outdoors. Christina followed the staff to a vacant lot near the company and started shooting.
Although Christina had no experience in shooting, today's shoot was mostly static photos, so it went very smoothly.
Meanwhile, Cheryl had just arrived nearby.
Cheryl couldn't believe that Ruben's one word had canceled the job she had worked so hard to get. She was unwilling to accept it!
She had thought about it for a long time at home and tried calling the Rojas Group staff, but the answer was always no. In the end, her calls were blocked.
Cheryl hadn't worked for a long time. If she continued to have no exposure, the audience would forget about her.
After much thought, she decided to go to the Rojas Group in person to talk to Ruben and fight for herself.
As she approached the Rojas Group, Cheryl saw a group of people surrounding someone coming out of the company. She looked closely and saw that it was Christina!
Moreover, Christina was dressed particularly beautifully, with exquisite makeup and wearing beautiful clothes.
What was going on? What was that bitch doing?
Full of doubts, Cheryl followed them!
When she saw that Christina was holding the product she was supposed to shoot during the shoot, she was filled with rage!
What? Christina actually stole her job!
"No wonder that bitch deliberately scratched my face that day! It turns out she wanted to steal my job!" Cheryl gritted her teeth, "Christina, I won't let you get away with this!"
During the shoot, Ruben was watching from the side. During the break, he handed a bottle of water to Christina. "Christina, you're too modest. You said you had no experience, but you're doing so well!"
Christina blushed at the compliment as she took the water. "No, no, it's really thanks to everyone's help. I'm just glad I didn't let anyone down."
"Wait."
Just as Christina was about to take a sip of water, Ruben called out to her and leaned closer to her cheek.
As his face got closer, Christina instinctively grabbed his hand and asked warily, "Ruben, what are you doing?"
Her wary reaction made Ruben's heart sink. He didn't expect her to be so guarded against him.
"You have a small bug in your hair. I'll help you remove it." Ruben explained.
Hearing Ruben's words, Christina realized she had misunderstood and felt embarrassed, quickly letting go of his hand. "Sorry, Ruben, I... I might be a bit too sensitive!"
Ruben carefully removed the small bug from her hair and then stood up straight. "Christina, I won't do anything you don't want me to do. You can trust me completely."
"Thank you, Ruben."
Christina felt an attraction to Ruben, but she couldn't understand why she was so resistant to his advances.
When Bernard got close to her, she didn't react this way.
What was wrong with her?
Christina didn't realize that her and Ruben's actions had been recorded by Cheryl on her phone. From her angle, it looked like the two were kissing.
Looking at the misleading video on her phone, Cheryl showed a sinister smile. "Christina, let's see who can help you this time!"
